Here's a simple example of a rhythm pattern programmed
in the Step Write Mode,
using a quantize rate of 1/16 (this pattern is the same as the one you entered in
the real time mode). It's shown here in regular music notation, and underneath the
part of each instrument is shown
in the form of a Dot Display. You can call up a
Dot Display on the RX21's LCD, as described in the STEP WRITE
DOT DISPLAY
section later in this chapter. Each dot represents a note (entered by pressing an
instrument key) and each dash represents a rest (entered by pressing the +1/YES
key).

You'll notice that the snare drum part has a lot of rests. These can be rapidly entered
by holding down the +1/YES key until you reach the next snare beat.
The length of a programmed pattern CANNOT
be changed. The quantize rate can
only be changed by using the Beat Exchange function
(this is described later in
this chapter).
